Operating instructions for the Model 562 belt grinder
The model 562 belt grinder is a three wheel path belt grinder that use a 1 x 42 inch
continuous loop abrasive belt. For maximum effectiveness, and operator safety use abrasive
belts manufactured by well respected abrasive manufacturers.
* Use abrasive belts that are the proper size and type for your machine.
* Do not use abrasive belts that are old and excessively worn.
* Do not use abrasive belts that use lap splice joints. This type of belt is prone to
separate more easily. It also may tend to snag your work and create a safety
hazard. It may also perform poorly.
Prior to operating the model 562 please take time to do the following:
1. Insure that you have received all of the items that you ordered. Compare the packing slip
with your purchase order, and of course with the physical items received.
2. Verify that there is no obvious shipping damage. If shipping damage is discovered notify
the freight carrier of your intention to file a freight damage claim. They will assist you.
3. Verify that the AC power that is identified on the machine as received matches the AC
power that you intend to operate the machine with. Do not modify the machines wiring
without first contacting your distributor or Burr King manufacturing.
4. Do not modify or defeat any AC wiring safety feature. In example, do not remove the
grounding pin on the AC plug.
5. Verify that you have received a warranty card, parts lists, catalog, and Operator, and
Operating Area Safety Instructions.
6. Complete the warranty card and return it to Burr King Manufacturing.
7. Verify that the various guards for the machine are in place and functional. See the parts list
for the indicated part numbers.
a. The contact wheel guard and backup platen are mounted and adjusted such that the
platen lightly touches the back of the abrasive belt (P/N 503, 504A).
b. The full safety guard is in place, closed and its door latch is functional such that it
will securely hold the safety door closed (P/N 542A. 542B, 542D, and 542C)
c. If an internal grinding attachment is installed insure that all pinch guards are
adjusted so as to guard the belt wheel entry points. This means that the pinch guards need to
very close, but not touching the abrasive belt (P/N 1429, 2 places, see the internal grinding
attachment parts list).
